his mother asked him why he couldn't love someone in his hometown, to which he responded:

"you know how you could drive two hours to see something pretty?

maybe the sky or the shoreline, or maybe a nice hotel

that is what seeing my pretty girl is like

I would drive two hours everyday just to see her beautiful face

to hold her in my arms and savor every moment

and I would do it over and over again

because she is my home away from home"
